lucid

Second of Three LDs for the night. I'm walking through a field with my brother talking about All Day Awarenss as a method to become lucid. At one point in the walk within the grove, I spontaneously turn to him, levitate up quite a few feet, smirk and say "Now I'm Lucid". We are neara a long row of brown wooden picnic tables which were lined up. I had peviously run across all of these as I was explaining ADA. I see him run a bit on the ground as I ascend and say "[B]...if that's who you really are...". Beautiful yellow-amber sunlight comes into the grove, providing a Spring/Surreal feel to the entire surrounding. Rather than continue to fly, I decide to resist the temptation and focus on recalling a goal. I descend to the ground and want to focus on speaking with a guide within the dream. The dream begins to get dim as I walk across the grove along a line of evergreen trees. I remain focused. I begin spinning to change scenes. At this point I feel as though I am in the dream and simultaneously feeling my eyelids. I am very careful with how I manipulate vision within the dream as I become very aware of my sleeping body.

First Lucid Dream of the night. I moved my head a bit upon awakinging and feel as though a great deal of the dream memory was difficult to retrieve due to this. I am lucid in my childhood house with no memory of a definitive starting point. I immediately think to begin on one of my LD goals, and meet a spiritual teacher within the dream. Before taking action, I head to the backyard of the house. I am by the sliding glass door in a very dark family room. I resolve to stay focused regardless of black-outs/voids which seem to be approaching. I continue to remember the exact nature of my goals in the dream, and run through my memory a bit more. I do not do anything to ground myself into the dream at this point as I am too focused on the purpose I wanted to accomplish. However, I am successful in sharpening my awarenss and moving through a period of dream blindness. At one point I head to the kitchen and see my mother out of the corner of my eye. I decide to head to the fridge, and open it. I decide to take a couple pieces of toast and put both pieces in my mouth at once and continue on with exporing. I noticed the strong sense of the class texture of toast on my tongue and on the roof of my mouth. It had hints of butter as well. I head back to the family room around this point and the dream nears a fading period once again. I regain awareness, and I believe at this point I arrive upstairs. I attempt to refocus the dream by changing the scene and continuing on with the goal. I head to the hallway and feel the presence of my brother in his room. I spin to keep stability and attempt to end up in another scene. This is all taking place in the middle of the hallway at this point. I decide that I'll head through the glass window opposite the entry hall as a new scene did not appear. I set my mind to encounter a new scene once I head through. I end up with a vision in the dream at this point as though only my awarenss is present. I am in a new location, with narration from a co-worker (I was talking to this person about dream a couple days prior). She explains that she has gotten good at changing dream scenes. There is a squiggly arrow leading up between a walkway. The walkway is situated between walls of two adjacent walls which appear to be enges of a lodge of some sort. She then explains she likes spending time with her family in this ocation. I wake up around this point. The entire dream felt to be roughly 12 minutes.

LUCID - SSILD

*I become lucid by doing a RC while laying in bed after an SSILD attempt. I woke up right after but I was actually still asleep. This happened over and over again
about 10 times. This freaked me out because the more it happened the more I felt stuck in a loop of FAs.

DILD#1-I know I caught a FA. The next thing I remember is that I was flying through the air trying to transform into a dolphin. I found a dolphin and was trying to phase into it but nothing was working. I woke up.

DILD#2-I woke up and walked to the kitchen to get a drink of water. Something seemed off, though so I decided to go into the backyard into the night and jump as a reality check. To my surprise, I flew. Looking for solid objects to phase through, I flew to the roof of a building. I found an interesting checkerboard wall that had squares of see through wood. I made sure it was solid by knocking on it before going through. I then flew into a nearby bay where I saw some dolphins before I woke up.

DILD#3-I woke up and did a nose plug to find I could breathe. I went outside and starting thinking about how I could control time. I went out the door and rotated my forefinger counter-clockwise to reverse time which worked. I then rotated my finger the other way while leaning backwards. This caused me to speed out the door without any effort. I flew to find a nice open are by a pool. I put my hand behind my back to summon a dolphin, making sure it was big enough. I ended up summoning a sort of dolphin-eel hybrid. It was plenty big, about 10-15 feet in length. I woke up.

DILD#4-I woke up and tried to breathe through my nose but couldn't. Still, something seemed off so I got up to go to the kitchen to find the layout of the house was different. I see a person who sees me and says "Okay. This guy has been sitting here with a match all day long." I was trying to figure out what he meant by this when I woke up.

I remember a dream about being on my college campus. I remember hardly anything about it save for the fact that I was in the cafeteria eating the baked chicken that they served there occasionally. (My favorite meal from that cafeteria, even though I rarely went there.)

All that I remember past that was that I was walking somewhere from the cafeteria. became lucid because it was Friday and I realized I didn't have to be on campus today, so I must be dreaming. but I Layer 1'd almost immediately...

-WBTB-

A dream about me and my Dream-Dad. We were playing a game together. MMF! WATH? DREAM DAD IS COOPERATIVE? [RC's] Anyways, we are each play as one of these Mechs. They look like the cougars from Mechwarrior. We have three weapons. Machine Gun, Rockets and Sniper cannon. We head out and encounter the bad guys. There are three of them piloting heavy slow mechs.

We hide behind some rocks and shoot them. They are so slow that they can't hit us. We beat them. I remember thinking something about there being no weapons in the game with splash damage and how we might use that to our benefit.

The same three players kept coming after us in different mechs. Flying Mechs. Tanks. Etc. We would always beat them, but we were running out of ammo. We went back to our base. (That was underneath this big energy shield dome, and got ammo crates.) The bad guys came back. One of them was piloting a dropship and the other two were in mechs. One mech was big and heavy. (Mad Cat) and the other was very small and ran very fast. Now that the bad guys were mixing up their strategy, we were having a harder time fighting them.

I woke up.

-WBTB-

I remember I was walking in town. I saw a Jeep-like car come over the hill and roll sideways. It skidded on its side down the road, leaking gasoline out of the exhaust pipes. I thought there would be an explosion.

I then saw a bus in the parking lot of the Wendy's that was on fire. I heard the people inside screaming and pushing on the glass. Someone asked why nobody could get the door open. I ran to help everyone but the door opened as I got close and everyone got out of the smoky bus. I saw a couple of cops ride into town on a motorcycle. One of them pulled out a gun and shot into the air to restore order.

I realized that the whole downtown area was falling into chaos. There was what looked like a riot going on and people were rolling over cars and buildings were on fire. I decided I would run to somewhere safe, so I turned and ran in the direction of my old school.

"This is a Nightmare, I thought to myself. A Nightmare... wait. [Nose Pinches]." Yeah.

I remember the dream had lost a lot of stability because I had been stressed and scared by the disaster scenes in town. I DEILDed and came back into the dream where I was living in my apartment. Apparently in dream, I had my own apartment in town now. (Though it was in the place of a house.)

The entire room was a bathtub, toilet, sink and a small bed, with a tiled floor. I for some reason shouted 'This is my Dream Base! I will return here in every dream and become lucid!' I then decided that it was a dream, and I could make the room bigger. So I took a deep breath and began doing a pushing motion. The room was big enough that I couldn't touch the walls, but I was trying to... psychically push them farther apart. And it worked.

I then decided I would summon Manei. So I looked at the door, and did my good old fashioned 'Manei, Kuansen Axio Sosubmle" command. I heard a knock on the door and opened it. Apparently she was still manifesting in because she was just a floating head at first, but after a few seconds her whole body had manifested in from a hazy white light. I remember when she finished a little purple (+10) appeared. I guess that was in reference to the competition since I've been putting all my scores in purple.

She was awkwardly trying to move all of this stuff. (Like carrying a backpack, two purses and a couple huge suitcases.) I guess she was moving in with me...

I wanted to hurry past this part so we could get to the important stuff we had going on tonight. Especially since she kept stumbling on stuff that had been left in the hallway by other people. I started making stuff disappear right before my eyes to make it easier for her to move everything. I was reluctant that I would delete something of hers, so I asked before removing each object. Most of them were just bags of trash in the hall. I would level my open hand at them and think it, and they'd disappear with a humorous pop sound.

At some point there was also an annoying issue with finding her invisible coin purse on the floor of the hallway.

After that, she went away for a bit while I took note that the room had a closet and a larger bathtub now. When she came back, she was pushing a king sized bed down the hallway. (Well, I guess I know what's on HER mind, because we both know that we're already asleep, and we don't need a bed.)

She asked me to help her get it into the room. The tight hallway we were in made this a crappy physics puzzle. She must be much stronger than me because I tried to move that king sized bed and it wouldn't budge. So I wound up figuring that I could transport the giant bed into the room by teleporting it into higher dimensional space. I did. It also disappeared instantly with a 'pop' sound. I went into the room to see that it had already re-appeared and I thought to myself that it must have put the old small bed into hyperspace.

(Weird how my physical strength in dreams is only moderate, while I still possess the ability to telekinetically move or teleport massive objects.)

Anyways, after that she wandered off. Somehow or other we were in my house now, and the apartment we had created was where my room was. I just remembered that she was talking on her cell phone and I jumped over her, did a flip and landed in front of her. She hung up.

"Sorry, am I a little too-in-your face?"
"Yeah- I thought you didn't want to see me. I messed up. I taught you the wrong command and I tried to make you grow up too fast. I thought you didn't like me anymore because I wasn't perfect."
"Psh, Think of all the times I messed up in front of you and did something dumb. I just wanted to make sure that wasn't gonna become the norm. We gotta keep each other in line, you know."
"She said some reply in gibberish and I noticed she was crying a little."
"Really, you gotta cry about this? I said I forgive you. You can be such a big baby sometimes..."

I remembered commenting that she wasn't her usual cheerful self and that it was because I had been sick in waking life, so she had been rather sick in the dream world and was still getting over it. Apparently sickness in waking life=depressed dream guide. Not sure how that works. I also remember through the whole dream she was wearing this gray beanie hat with a little blue knitted flower on the side. It was kind of cute but also conveyed her dismal state quite well.

"So I'm a little twitchy because I'm in the LDing competition right now."
"Really, I don't like lucid dreaming competitions." (She said it really clearly to make sure I knew what she felt.)
"I wasn't sure if I would like them either, but I decided to have an open mind. That Reminds me. I have to do... elemental bending for it. That was the reason I wanted to see you. You taught me water way back when..."
"Things that you want to know that you don't even know how to know. Well I have to go now the dream is gonna end."

She then proceeded to take out an umbrella and open it over her head. She disappeared using some trickery, leaving behind only a cat. I remember the cat meowed and the inside of its mouth was yellow. I tried to ignore the fact that she said the dream was gonna end, hoping there was still more lucid to come.

"I sighed. Well I guess I'm on my own... Tesseract to-"

Nuts.

Dream Fragment (+0.5) College dream counts as fragment since barley remembered.
NLD (x2=2) Im counting the Mech dream as well as the burning bus dream.
WBTB (x2 =2)
DILD (x2 = 15)
Reality Check (x1 = 1)
Chain LD (x1 =2) (Successful this time, from a layer 1 though, still lucid-awake-lucid.)
Unspecified Dream Control (x1 =5) Making the room bigger.
Basic Summoning: (x1 Dream Guide = 5+5) Manei is not a real person. Think that counts for 10.
Interact with DC (lots of DG interaction.) 2
Basic Un-summoning: (x5ish trash bags, one at a time = 5)
Don't know how to count the teleportation of the king sized bed from hallway to room. Spell can decide.

Total: 44.5

Weird, I still got a lot of points for helping Manei move her crap into my room.

I've been thinking lately about something a friend said to me, apparently if you stay properly hydrated during the day then your body will need 30% less sleep during the night. This is because keeping hydrated allows it to function better during the day so you don't need to recover as much while sleeping. I started paying attention to how hydrated I've been and noticed that the days where I stay extremely well hydrated result in the nights being more vivid with a higher chance of lucidity. I had 2 lucids last night which was unexpected, especially since the activities I spent time on doing yesterday usually result in me being less aware (reading, gaming, watching shows, exercising). My awareness has also just been generally gobshite over the past few days, despite meditating every night. I also didn't meditate last night since I was too tired, but I did consume a massive amount of liquids throughout the day. The only variable I can think of was that I drank like 3 different kinds of tea which I usually don't drink at all. Other than that my diet was completely the same as always.
I think staying hydrated could be a key condition for myself getting lucid at night, so I'll keep paying attention to it for now.

Dream 1 - Cafe Playground
I remember being with my daughter inside a playground (like the ones in McDonald's). She was much younger than she is now so I was helping her out a lot. I remember being able to see her mother/family outside the playground, we decide to head down a slide and go see them. We get down safely and go sit in the cafe that we appeared in. Next to me is someone from the family but I can't recognize who. I order a smoothie, it must be blueberry (guessing from the blue colour). I think I get up to go pay or something and I realize the baby isn't on me, so I turn around and go pick her up but I realize I'm dreaming. I wander past the cafe (it's like a small cafe they in the middle of the mall) and look around. The area seems similar to the mall near where I live, I think about what to do and come to a decision. In 1 of my previous lucids I was able to enter a VIP area by the elevator and wanted to see if I could get in there again. I find an elevator and press the button a few times. Geeze I feel like it's not working, eventually I wake up. The dream was pretty standard for my lucids, about 30-60 seconds.

Dream 2 - Star Wars office
It was like I was in a star wars video game (like jedi academy), I was doing a mission in an enemy base. The corridors were all metal and there was an opened gateway to my right. Past the gateway was a rocky cliff that seemed to end in an endless abyss, but there was another gateway on the other side. I'm sprinting along as I see this gateway, the doors on both sides are slowly closing, I do a huge leap over the abyss and tumble under the gateway on the other side. It was really close but I managed to make it before the door closed. I then enter the stars wars galactic government room, with all those floating things the politicians talk from. I remembered that in a video I watched a while ago the race E.T. was from was part of the galactic government, for some reason I really felt like looking around for them. After not being able to see them (though there were definitely a whole variety of alien species around) I had the awareness to become lucid. I decided that, unlike in my last lucid earlier in the night, I would reality check and attempt to stabilize a bit and then pursue a dream goal. I pushed my thumb into the palm of my hand, stretching it and confirming the dream state. Next I decided that I'd continue my search for a dream guide, the area I was in was more like a business work floor now. I remember seeing a girl walk past so I tried asking her if she was my dream guide, she kept moving away too fast and I couldn't catch up. She was only walking at a normal pace and I was running, she should have been a metre apart but eventually the distance increased to several metres and she disappeared. I got too caught up in the chase and ended up waking up.

So, I remember i was sleeping in class then i woke up and saw that everything looks different. I panicked and asked my friend, "Where am I? What year is this?!"
She told me it's the forth year of your college. I asked her, what happened to me theseast few years!?
she then paused and replied, " Your mother..died in an ice-slide...and your father died when the house burned down." I remember that I started crying.then i got angry amd just went towards the teacher and kept shouting, "this is all your fault!"
She calmly replied,"it's none of my business. "
"We'll see!" I told her, then i stormed out of the classroom with my friend, then i grabbed everything that contained alcohol and wrapped it in a cloth and threw it in the fire. Then my friend and I, quickly started running away before we get caught.then on the way, I told her. How did my house burn?
she then told me, "It happened on your birthday..you probably should see it yourself." i got teary eyed once more then we headed somewhere. Everything was burned down except the metal skeleton of the house..
i looked around, on the ground there was a blue braclet and a blue necklace. "When your house burnt down and your father died, you threw his gift here, shouting ''I don't want your gifts! I want you!'" She told me, and i held the necklace tighter and then wore it. I then asked her if she wants to spend the night here with me, she said alright and we slept under the remains of the house.


then i woke up in n alternate universe where my house didn’t burn and my father was alive. I woke up in my bedroom and o my desk i saw a game. I looked at the cover and it said, Dragon age Carnivorous (which in my mind i saw it as dragon age 4)
Then i got excited and looked down my window. I remember telling myself, "Man, I wish this was a dream so i could fly outta here..." Then something snapped in me. I looked around the environment and realised, "This is a dream!" Then i became lucid. When i became lucid i recalled one of the tutorials i had read about lucid dreaming stability techniques. So before doing anything, i stopped and looked at my hand. On the palm of my hands i saw some written formulas about physics and as i continued looking i saw the detail of my hands, the lines etc. Then as i though i was ready, i shouted,"Dream clarity now! Lucidity now!" Then i saw the enviorment environment becoming more vicid and so i jumped to fly which i did but then everything turned black and i woke up.

From all the fragments that I received during the night, I remember only one (probably an effect of tiredness).

I was in my house, going out of a room. I had female legs and I was wearing a pantyhose and a black skirt on my legs. I wanted to see myself in a mirror. Instead I went to my room and thought "Wait, it's a dream!" I thought what I should do, and went to toy a bit with a mirror. I shapeshifted. First I looked like my brothers pal, then I changed into a man with unusual forehead, tiny eyes set on sides and baldness in YHA middle of the head. Then I thought about turning into a woman. I used the mirror to change, from ugly or plain females into some beautiful ones. Lucid dream wasn't really stable, so everything went black after a while and I woke up.

From all the shape changes I gave most attention to that strange man and to a redhead female that I turned into.

Created Thursday 14 April 2016

I remembered two dreams today, one DILD after a WILD attempt, and one before my first known awakening. However, at the moment, I only know of scraps for the latter.

Scrap Group 1
Like yesterday, I ended up seeing a member from DreamViews in my dream. This was an androgynous person with long, black hair, a person that I assumed was JadeGreen. Later on, I spoke with my brother, Edwin, who lacked his dreads and beard. Then, a good portion of the dream revolved around a Sega Genesis game. Or rather, a black mega-cartridge filled with supposed "demos" of said games, as indicated from a red and black label, as well as a pamphlet that came with it. Of those listed in this brochure were all of the classic Sonic games (Sonic 1, 2, 3, and Knuckles). This cartridge was apparently shown in a private tech convention in the mid nineties, and indeed, a warning label stated it was illegal to have under any other circumstances. I hooked this up to a Genesis console, and played some fantasy beat-em-up game, not unlike the first Golden Axe, though more medieval fiction than Hyborian-esque.


Dream 1 - A Lucid Tour

Scene 1 - Not the Best Spot to Sleep
The visuals were blurred. I woke up in the living room of unknown apartment. Lounging around in the area were my parents, as well as one or both of my brothers.

From the start, I felt uncomfortable and tired. I thus hadn't a care in laying down around or under odd places, starting with the carpeted floor. I later moved under a bar stool, and then under a table, where I dozed off for a bit.

When I awaken, I find myself squeezed under a leather couch. I became suspicious, enough so that my dream form understood the dream state, but not quite "me". Anyway, I had difficulty breathing, but I calmed down. From random thoughts, I tried giving amusing justifications for my predicament. Nothing of the sort occurred. I just simply drifted off again.

Then, I "woke up" once more, this time in my bedroom. Felt as if I've had a miserable sleep. So, I trudged to the master bedroom, seeing my brother, Mathias, walking out. I dropped on the bed, only to find, much to my disgust, that the sheets were damp. And yet, I somehow got too comfortable to think of moving. Heck, I even gambled on this helping me attain a lucid dream.

The scene transitioned afterwards.

Scene 2 - Funnelled Into Awareness
The visuals were clear. I was in a lounge room, decorated by a few brown leather couches and some potted plants. A look out the window walls showed I was in the upper floors of a building, a full view of seaside cityscape outside. The skyscraper's spires pierced through storm clouds, all concealing a twilight sky. At a glance, I could note mom was nearby.

The dark clouds begin spinning rapidly. Within seconds, a narrow, straight funnel cloud descends to the ground. I somehow recalled having a similar dream just days before, and at that, became aware of my state. As such, I relaxed myself, and allowed the twister to do its work.

Those windows shatter, and I'm immediately sucked out of the building. Yet, I'm only dragged but a few meters before I'm simply falling to the streets below. I recover quickly, and glide ahead towards the ocean, all while enjoying the great view. For a few seconds, anyway, as I'm interrupted by landing much earlier than expected.

Suddenly, the surrounding structures crumble in plain view, while the sea recedes, if not evaporates entirely. All that's left is the clear blue sky, as well as a desert of white sand I was standing on. I fly ahead, catching sight of, and chasing, the drying ocean visible in the distance, curious as to where it takes me. There was an eerie lack of noise for a moment. Cue music playing in the background, an ambient, if somber piano piece.

Time moved much faster. Within the span of several seconds, I observed water, foliage, and even sand and clay structures come and go. It was as if I'd witnessed a cycle of the world ending and beginning anew.

Eventually, the visuals got very grainy. As new structures materialized, I noticed these having trite, blocky textures from Minecraft, the buildings being large, triangular roofed buildings constructed in an orderly array of sandstone, cobblestone, wood, and glass. Got annoyed at seeing as much, but at least these attained slightly more smoothed, less blocky textures in time.

The scenery vanished for a moment, though uttering for more time fixed that. A low resolution cityscape then formed ahead, the buildings made of yellow-brown stone material.

By then, I got a bit bored of this tour. So, I jumped right to conjuring up a more personally interesting sight, let's just say a woman to my taste. As I glance beside me, I'm surprised to see just as much in the distance. Yet, she appeared as animated in 3D, much like those ameteur "Poser" figures.

I very much wanted to get her attention. Unfortunately, as I followed her, the scenery collapsed instantly, and I awaken.

4 Mini Wilds ✨
Just wrote all all out and it was deleted so this version will be shorter. Went to bed around 10 PM after being on DV. Took small amount of melatonin to help me drift off and 100 B. Said mantra's as I fell asleep.✨ Listened to Gateway to Inner self a bit today too - it's great!

Had a row for Wild's albite brief ones
I did wbtb from 3.30am to 4.15am and massage to my back and said mantra's - I set up the bed. I put on the fan and earplugs and I mask.

I lay back down for a long while because of the comfy bed and the massage I was able to stay still for long time with no problem - Dreamlets passed and spasms jogged my foot and other parts of my body - sleep to my body came Finally.

The first wild was happening- I was drifting off and a dream came ...in the darkness I walked up a dark road to the side of the road a figure came to greet me with palms together in a bow. I suddenly felt my body separate away from my body in the bed - i love that feeling ✨and I know i am Dreaming.

"I'm dreaming" I called out happily and knowing I had just come from a Wild dive I was a bit giddy then I called out "next level now" then I called out "higher self now" ( these are from William Buhlman's book but I should have given myself some more time to settle in to the LD

I believe this was all a bit too much too soon and I found myself back on my body

Laid still - letting things come and go ....some time later dreamlets were entering my awareness again✨
I started to make sense of the visions and felt I was standing next to a moving train ...I throw my heavy bag up onto the train and then managed to jump up myself just as the train was picking up speed and moving off into the open track. I was on the last carriage and looked back at the terrain I had just jumped away from - it was a beautiful place
" it's India - how Wonderfull " I cried out happily " I am so happy to see you again!"
Oh - the sky is a beautiful blue and I feel it's a wonderful place to be in my lucid dream world✨

I am back in my bed after feeling the shift come on...I lay still and waited once more

The next was a dreamlet recognition again - in the darkness I can make some shadows out - there is me and 2 others - I am very aware that I am transitioning into a dream so need to act carefully and with ease...I shoot the dangerous robot guy with some metal discs and he starts to disintegrate - I move towards the other person as an attempt to get the Lucid dream going ... I grapple about in the dark about and am back in my body...

The next was myself in a dark room with 2 others - Little David and Daniel...Daniel says under his breath that David is a child and I see David is hurt. I say to Daniel
" You should be respectful towards people as they are to you"
He laughs as I walk out.

I very badly wanted to carry on but had to get up - tomorrow I return !

4 successfull wild Dives - i spose they could have been deild's but i cannot be sure as it felt like some time between each re- entering ...not quickly.
I am happy with my awareness during the dives as being present and able to respond to the dreamlets is something I very much wish to work on more and more ...yay " It's happening !" - I feel good progress in being made after about one year of pretty steady work ... My LD number is now 110 - mostly Dild/Mild's

6.30-7.30am
Medium LD #394
Next to the bed are two small white alarm clocks showing different times. I find my phone to try and work out what time it is. A stream of texts appear. Each text message is a comic book panel though and seems to be a story. This makes me question everything and I do an RC to confirm the dream.

I try to get out of the window and end up in a white void. Pushing onwards leads to a small park with a cyclist and two people in giant panda suits. Er. The dreamscene is unstable and fades.

False awakening. I am able to hold my awareness as the previous scene fades so instantly do another RC and find myself still dreaming. The window of the room is blocked with slats of wood. There is a door, the only other possible exit, but that way is blocked with hundreds of folded clothes. The more clothes I pull down the more appear. This dream is being uncooperative.

Getting angry I decide to punch my way out and do a partial transformation to enlarge my fist and arm, then use super strength to bust open the planks of wood covering the window.

Once outside I quickly summon Hukif, Sensei and Dolphin. They do not appear as expected. Or maybe I don't know what to expect... Dolphin looks kind of vaguely like Thor from the marvel comic books. Six foot four roughly and long blonde hair but wearing a stripy t-shirt. Hukif's avatar is more average height, as is Sensei. They both have strange hair which moves independently, as though alive.

Right let's sort this out properly. I transform dolphin and Sensei into Superman outfits of blue with red capes. Then I turn Hukif into Batman, purely by pointing at each of them and telling them who to become. Hukif's armor looks really cool but it is more like Daredevil's armor from the new TV series: Black and grey with bat ears instead of devil horns. Close enough.

Before the battle can start there is one more thing. I need to transform as well! HULKBUSTER! Throwing my arms down to my sides I feel the metal armor covering them and can feel myself growing and bulking out. Red and gold plates covering me. The fight kicks off and I start trying to hit the two Superman dressed figures with repulsor blasts. (Forgot we were supposed to fight with pillows.) They are nimble and keep dodging. Hukif is kicking arse and throwing batarangs around.

It is impossible to tell Sensei and Dolphin apart now as they have both fully transformed into Superman, but everyone seems to be invulnerable to damage. Superman tries to punch me in the face and it connects but doesn't hurt. Then I decide to activate the armor's boots to get a sudden boost of super speed. This sends me shooting down the road and into a covered walkway area. I try to get back but can't find the others and the dream fades soon after.

So I spoke about this to at least one user in the chat system 'SwordArtOnline' ( I think I remember your name correctly). I sometimes sleep with music in order to influence my dreams. The headphones I use are these

They sit flat to my ears so I can still lie on my side, you see I move about a lot in my sleep sometimes. The music I choose can either be very specific and I would stick to a playlist or I put all 1003 of my songs on shuffle. I can end up with some interesting results.

The most influenced was a dream involving me dancing with someone I knew to the song 'Paralyzed' (disfigure remix) by DM Galaxy. We moved in time to the song and slowed down whenever the music would distort etc. What we danced on were platforms that I can only describe as being in a Mario 3D level (I have never owned or played the game).

Another instance of influence was in some more recent dreams. The first I can't remember the song but my friends were singing the song (these friends happen to be in a drama group outside of school, apart form one). They guy who I couldn't take my ears away from was the one who didn't go to the drama group, but I was still rather enamoured by the voice (granted it wasn't really his own but the songs).

Just after this occurrence I was transported to a back alley place, which had one of those bouncing car things like at a kids park. It also had a Large red fire engine thing that was built into the ground. The song 'Fuck U Betta' by Neon Hitch was in the background and I am SO GLAD none of my friends were singing it... that would've been strange...

So this is recall of last nights dream, fragments of it at least.

One fragment includes me walking down my road in pjs that were not my own, they were pale blue and flannel type. I was kind of sliding about rather than walking really. At the corner of my road was a poorly built shelter and it was raining. In the shelter was a stand with my parcel on it (last week I had ordered some things from Amazon) it was the last one to arrive but it had already been partially opened and looked as if it had been wrapped back up in brown paper and tie cords.

Another fragment or 'event' happened in what looked like a decent sized motel room. Everything had a sort of old western aesthetic to it, the floor was carpeted and worn down. The bed that folded out from the wall was a queen size and had brown bedding. Opposite the bed there was an old radiator which looked to not be in use and was being used instead as a jewellery stand (because that makes perfect sense). Behind that was a wall vent, with the fancy designed metal so it didn't look boring in the wall (at least I assume that's why people did that). In the dream I actively took pieces of jewellery from it to inspect and recognised some as my own, it was all themed with the old western aesthetic again, leather cord, animal teeth, wooden beads of primary colours and aboriginal design kinda thing.
Then I went to inspect the wall vent and it turned out to be storing stuff. I found my BuckyBalls (tiny magnetic ball bearings that you can make cool geometric shapes out of) with some of them in a smaller container beside. I remember scolding myself in the dream about "that's where the others have gone!"

One very short fragment I recall is when I found out I was in the blue pjs, I was sliding down something and that's it...

Created Wednesday 13 April 2016

I attained a WILD state today, having many dreamlets in between, as well as one complete dream at the end. I also remembered a fairly long dream before the first awakening, one that I'm sure had me attain a lucid state (or at least a false lucid), but at this point, I only have fragments of it.

Scrap Group 1
After a number of occurrences, I end up on the deck of a sail ship. There, I encounter a member from DreamViews (not sure who at the moment). Later, I speak with a disembodied head of an unknown bald guy. I become lucid at some point, or my dream form assumes as much.

Dream 1 - Kinda a Venetian Galleass
My arms went numb, and stayed that way for several minutes. I'd assumed this was merely a transition state into a full dream, but a breath check proved I was indeed dreaming. The surprise awakened me briefly, but I promptly returned, and in deeper sleep, no less.

Various dreams formed within several minutes. One was a false awakening involving my sleep being interrupted by family members.

There were also a few afflictions of REM Atonia, from which I woke up with difficulty breathing. A particular instance even had me inside a cloth padded coffin. Despite this, unlike in my other suffocation hallucinations, I managed to convince myself to remain calm, and drifted off to sleep afterwards.

Eventually, I spent several rounds floating backwards in the void. In most cases, I attempted and failed to bring light and clarity in various ways, including by trying to remove my sleeping mask, focusing on a certain point, and just plain intention.

A few incidents involved some furries showing up, their faces contorted with perverted expressions. Enraged at the sight, I quickly began strangling each one by one, which, in turn, caused them to "poof" out of existence.

After a few more excursions, I finally have the mind to attempt... well, I'll leave this part for myself. Heheheh.... A little kink, is all.

Several more trips to the void occurred, until I finally assert myself to create a scenery. I try remembering the sailing dream above, imagining myself on the deck of a ship. In seconds, this takes forms as a low res image of as much. Next, I thought of ambient noises, which were produced instantly, sounds of creaking wood and crashing waves echoing all around me. Out of personal taste, I wanted this ship to be a galleass, which would mean it's partially oar powered. And just like that, I began hearing the rhythmic splashes and hoarse grunting of such activity below. A literal skeleton crew, I imagined, though I never saw any of that.

The environment became brighter and more solidified, though it still retained gritty visuals. Above me was a deep blue dawn sky behind storm clouds, while a vast grey ocean was all that lay below and the ship, the scenery aided by the scent and sensation of an omnipresent sea breeze.

My perspective discorporates a distance ahead and above of the ship. It seemed more a stout sailboat, like a cog, than a vast war galley. Furthermore, its details fluctuates in resolution, from choppy, to cartoony 3D (think early PSOne game quality), to quite realistic. A "map view", perhaps?

Anyway, the vessel was beset by rough tide. Quite rough, in fact, as the waves slammed right over the ship. Despite this, the ship pressed forward.

I start to wonder about this. "Huh. For a second, I thought it'd surely..."

Before I could finish that thought, the ship capsizes immediately.

"Boss!", shouts an unknown masculine, raspy, and seemingly dehydrated voice nearby. "We're going down!"

My viewpoint realigns itself, where I could see, feel, and taste that I'm submerged entirely in seawater, accidentally gulping down a copious amount of the stuff. I resurface and recover in short order. Now, I could see a small landmass ahead of me, a tiny island, with a disproportionately tall grey mountain in its center. "Looks like I'll find my 'White Whale' after all", I think to myself.

Unfortunately, the dream dissolves immediately afterwards.

This past dream was definitely lucid, I remember a lot of contemplation in the dream as to what I should do next.

It was all inside a place very much like an adventure/explore park. Like Conkers in England. It was a large claiming frame area and jungle themed with lots of dark wood and vines being used in both decoration and play equipment. There were false animals attached to walls and poles and various other places.

I remember one portion of the dream where I walked across the top layer of the park and found myself in a water park area (again with the water... wonder what that is?). There was a large pool, divided into two by a 2 meter wide bridge which I later found to reach down into the water somewhat. One side it was kiddy-pool shallow and the other side grew deeper as you went further away from the centre bridge. It eventually led into a waterslide, everyone had red inner-tubes.
